Facts about Chanterelle
The shape of a Chanterelle is somewhat like a trumpet, and its color varies. Fresh chanterelles are available during fall and winter (from July though March). They are available dried year round. The one advantage of using Chanterelle is that it can hold its own shape when cooked unlike other mushrooms, which many chefs like. The taste of Chanterelles is well prized by many great chefs and called the queen of the forest. It is integrated wonderfully with cheese, tomatoes, fish, poultry and meat.
